No intention to breastfeed from birth will still get engorgement ?

Hi mummies that formula fed their baby right from birth and no intention to breastfeed or pump, did you still have engorgement? Do i need to straightaway ask gynae for medication to stop milk production or it wont engorge or produce milk if i dont stimulate nipple ?

I didnt breastfeed when I first gave birth as I was too weak to even carry my baby... I ended up with engorgement on day 4 after birth. I had to get a masseuse to clear the clogs for me, I hand expressed all the milk out. best you ask for the medicine if you dont want to breastfeed. but have to deal with a few days of milk leaking/engorgement.
